Back when we started
We didn't know how hard it was
Living on nothin'
But what the wind would bring to us?

Now we've got somethin'
I can imagine fightin' for
So why is fightin'
All that we're good at anymore?

And sometimes I don't have the energy
To prove everybody wrong
And I try my best to be strong
But you know it's so hard, so hard

It's so hard when it doesn't come easy
It's so hard when it doesn't come fast
It's so hard when it doesn't come easy
It's so hard

It felt like a given
Something a woman's born to do
A natural ambition
To see a reflection of me and you

And I'd feel so guilty
If that was a gift I couldn't give
Could you be happy
If life wasn't how we pictured it?

And sometimes I just want to wait it out
To prove everybody wrong
And I need your help to move on
'Cause you know it's so hard, so hard

It's so hard when it doesn't come easy
It's so hard when it doesn't come fast
It's so hard when it doesn't come easy
It's so hard

Live for the moment
When all these clouds open up for me to see
Show me a vision
Of you and me swimming peacefully

Last night you told me
That you can't remember
How to feel free?

It's so hard when it doesn't come easy
It's so hard when it doesn't come fast
It's so hard when it doesn't come easy, easy
It's so hard, so hard, it's so hard, it's so hard
It's so hard, it's so hard, it's so hard, it's so hard
